Editorial Reviews

About the Author

RICHARD SCARRY (1919-1994) is one of the world's best-loved children's authors EVER! Generations of children all over the world have grown up spending hours poring over his books filled with all the colorful details of their daily lives. No other illustrator has shown such a lively interest in the words and concepts of early childhood. (Whenever he was asked how old he was, Scarry would always put up one hand and laugh, saying, "five!")

Born in 1919, Richard Scarry was raised and educated in Boston, Massachusetts. After five years of drawing maps and designing graphics for the US Army, he moved to New York to pursue a career in commercial art. But after showing his portfolio to one of the original editors at Golden Books, he found the perfect home for his work. The assignments first given to Scarry tended to be Little Golden Books that featured popular characters of the day, such as Winky Dink, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, and Smokey the Bear. Eventually, Scarry created his own original characters, such as Lowly Worm and Huckle Cat. But first came Nicholas, a young rabbit clad in red overalls, for the now-iconic classic I Am a Bunny.

In his extraordinary career, Richard Scarry illustrated more than 150 books, many of which have never been out of print. His books have sold over 100 million copies around the world and are currently published in more than twenty languages. Richard Scarry Jr., also an illustrator, carries on his father's work today under the name of Huck Scarry. Richard Scarry passed away at his home in Gstaad, Switzerland in 1994. He was posthumously awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Society of Illustrators in 2012.

My toddler LOVES this book!
We LOVE The Richard Scarry Seek and Find books! My toddler can spend a good hour looking at all the different objects in the book. Sometimes we just spend time play I spy. The book is nice and thick so it doesn't bend easily. I highly recommend this book. She's had it for months and still comes back to it often!

This is a perfect companion for a long car ride or flight - so many colorful, vibrant illustrations that are clearly labeled for young readers (or not-quite readers)!

I've always loved the detail in Richard Scarry's Busytown books and this was a great gift for my 4yo. There aren't very many pages, but each page is detailed enough to keep a child engaged for a while. I also love that it is a board book and therefore much sturdier for little bookworms.

My two-year old likes these books, but this one is a bit of a miss. It’s very large yet isn’t as clustered as some of the others. I bought it for travel but it’s not very practical.

My two year old is obsessed with hidden images in picture books, and with her favourite Richard Scarry characters Lowly Worm and Bugdozer, this hits the mark. Large and heavy book with ultra thick pages makes it pretty indestructible.
